Use [QTSource].

Simply install it to your AviSynth v2.5 plugins directory.

Usage:

LoadPlugin("C:\path_to\QTSource.dll")
QTInput("C:\path_to\quicktime.mov",audio=true)

Works for Quicktime v6 (video only) and v7 (audio and video) media files (Quicktime Player must be installed of course). audio is by default turned off, so you have to turn it on explicitly (see example)

Additionally you can write Quicktime mov files.

A detailed documentation for QTInput parameters for both reading and writing is delivered within the zip file.

Quicktime Does not seem to work for me using DirectshowSource with the FPS function.

But it at least loads, here is how. You will need to use the VFAPI Plugin called QTReader.vfp

(Just search for it in Google.com or which ever search site you prefer.)

You then use it like this:

LoadVFAPIPlugin("c:\****\QTReader.vfp","QTReader")
# **** = the location of QTReader.vfp
QTReader("****.mov")
# **** = location of the file and filename

I'm still working to keep it from displaying 600 fps in Vdub but it at least loads.

[edit] I gave up and used Tmpg to do QT.. AviSynth seamed to work ok, just couldn't get the right FPS..

I found that if I want to convert Avid (DV Xpress in this case) sequences into SVCD/DVD using Tmpeg or CCE I need to take the following steps:

1. Export the sequence as QT reference file

2. Write the following AVS script:

LoadVFAPIPlugin("*:\***\qtreader.vfp","QTReader")
video = QTReader("***.mov")
video = video.ChangeFPS(25) #PAL
video.FlipVertical #For some reason I got it flipped

3. Then use VFAPI-CONV (the reader) to convert the avs to avi

4. Use CCE or Tmpeg to convert the files
